thanksgiving sweet potatoes and marshmallows

Every year for Thanksgiving, we do some traditional recipes and a few new creations — but no matter what side dishes we’re making, this one is always somewhere on the table. Probably one of the easiest recipes on any Thanksgiving table, these sweet potatoes are a delicious, sweet, and rightfully well-loved holiday classic.

I hope everyone has an awesome holiday — I have so much to be thankful for this year, it’s hard to even get started! But getting to spend time with our friends and family over the holiday season is — of course — on top of the list. And Calvin and Coco are so excited for the turkey leftovers!

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large bowl, mix together the butter, sweet potatoes, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt. Place sweet potatoes in a medium baking dish. Roughly mash the potatoes until their consistency is even. Spread a layer of marshmallows over the sweet potatoes.

Cover with foil and bake in the preheated oven 25 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are tender and marshmallows have melted.
